Winter Clothes

To put it mildly, I hate clothes shopping. The only thing I hate worse than clothes shopping is shoe shopping. OK, that's not true. I hate the entire Republican presidential field even more but that's another post. So it is time to patch up the wardrobe with some needed winter clothes. What do I need?

I really like LLBean because the stuff is classic, fits well, they pay shipping, if I need to return anything there is zero hassle, and I can order it online and I don't have to set foot in a mall. Malls just set my teeth on edge and the minute I set foot in one, I just want to escape. I did go to the mall a couple of weeks ago to find DD's Christmas present and I have to admit that I did find a good parking place, and after I found the store, the staff was very helpful and had just what I was looking for. But still, I just wanted to escape.

I also dont love buying clothes. I try and do clothes shopping as part of my regular thrift shop trips. that said, Ive lost some weith and at some point am gonna need to aquire a couple more pants and a couple cardigans for school.

I love Value Village in Seattle. I can get a lot of brand-name clothes very cheaply there. I bought some very nice blouses there for a cruise I'm going on in December. Also shirts and jeans and a warm down vest that I need and leave here for those winter visits from Hawaii where we live.
